The Idemnity Lands.

Fargo, Dakota, Oot. 19-There is o
great deal Of interest here in the iden-
nifty land contest. One train from the
west tonight brought in 127 persons
who expect to put iu application for FL
lnes day after Tomorrow. Twenty-Five
persons came up from Lisbon, and about
the same number from Sheldon. A
large party are coming in from Wshpe
ton and another will be up from Hills
boro. 1t is probable that 300 persons
have already arrived who intend to place
filings on the idemnity lands recently
thrown open, and it is thirty-eix hours
before they can be placed. Tomorrow
night it is expected that from 400 to soc
men will stand In line at the land offios
all night. In some quarters there is muet
skepticism over the value OF these f1lingl
but it is generally thought that the pos
sible chance of winning valuable lape
makes the opportunity desirable one.

The wasbing.onian correspondent is

The Wasbingtonian correspondent is
abroad with another successor to Judge
Francis and this time the mantle of
promise falls upon the wide shoulders
of M. H. Day. He further AYERS that
Judge Francis successor will be selected
by Governor Church and coupling the
two asertions together the political OBJ
server is admonished to believe that Day
and Church have smoked the pipe of
peace in the democratic tepee. The
correspondents says:
Ii may surprise some friends of the adj
ministration In Dakota, b1t 1t Is not at
all unlikely that M. Fl Day will succeed
Francis. The administration does not
undervalle Days influence in Dakota,
and before he left for home the last time
made conoiliatory overtures to him,
which Mr.. Day heartily met by an ap-
proyal OF the administration, which con-
trasted stranely with heated epietles
written to friends here and expressions
of contempt dropped at various times in
Dakota.
Should this prediction come true il
will remove Mr.. Day from the domain oi
| politics and place him where he can dc
this least harm to Church and his admin.
istration This would seem, therefore, 9
shrewd move on the part OF the admin
istration in Dakota, which has more tt
fear from Day than from all other demo
cratic influences combined. With hin
safely housed within the judicial struc'
ture and fenced out Of the political pas
ture Church could enter that enclosure
without danger of being impaled
SO it Is reasonable to suppos,
that Church favors this method Of rid
ding himself of the strongest democrat
in Dakota, whose support he he's neyel
been able to secure.
One of the interesting features OF thi.
effort to shelve Jndge Francis is hi
utter dieregard for the attorney general
request for his resignation, He has no
replied to that official communication
and there is no evidence that he has re
celved it, beyond the fact that it wa
mailed to him. Judge Francis is no
the man to step out on mere request
His term does not expire until Angus
and if the administration wants his plae
before that time 1t will have to remoy
him and thereby violate the tenure G

be accomplished before spring. The
governor has placed the old board in q
position where his friends can claim that
they end they alone are to blame for the
sufferings OF the over crowded patients.

Following the annual report OF Land
Commissioner Sparks, prematurely made
public by that over-enthnsisstio official,
comes the inevitable rupture between
himself and his superior officer, Score
tary Lamar. The reflections made upon
Lamar by Sparks in that document, in
the good old days of southern chivalry
and the code, would have provoked q
hostile meeting, and IN this particular
case the public will regret that the code
has fallen into disuse. Sparks charges
the secretary with intefcepting grand
reform in land matters invented by him
self and containing sll the elements of
justice and equity. But many poor
settlers will testify to the contrary and
will give to Secretary Lamar their
sincere thanks for interposing between
them and the notorious land Office crank
who is utterly unable to discriminate
between honesty and dishonesty and
| who assails the poor man and lets the
monied. corporation run riot over the
public domain. Out OF this controversy
comes rumor that Sparks will resign

ta-one for the north half and one for the
south half. The Presbyterian church
has just adjourned the deliberations OF q
couple of synods-one for north Dakota
and one for south Dakota. The Congre.
gationalists of the territory have
recently met in annual session-one
gathering covering the area south of the
forty-sixth parallel and the other repre-
senting the territory north OF
that line. Our Baptist fellow citizens,
through the fall gatherings, have
established basis OF operations upon
the same plan. The Catholics OF Dakota
within the past six months have created
two dioceses with the forty-sixth parallel
for the dividing line. The Episoopaliaas
of the territory have been operating for
year or two under two separate
diocesan hesds-one for the north and
one for the south half. Thus il appears
that the religious organizations of Da-
kota, which come closer to the
people in all their transactions than
any other organizations, have found
division an essential to progress and
the one grand state theory impracti-
cable within the church. Dakota
churches have drifted into this dual ex-
istenoe imperoeptibly and without de-
sign, the necessities of the situation
forcing it upon them as their several
organic atoms have expanded and spread
over the territory. Herein is potent
argument in behalf of governmental di-
vision which need not be pointed out. II
